We do not take any responsibility for any phone problems possibly caused by this elf, especially the older versions that reboot on exit.

1. System Requirements:
- a DB2020 or better Sony Ericsson phone
- 2,5(depending on settings)MB + rom size of free heap(actually, for a 4MB game the emulator needs 5-6MB, but I noticed phone gets ustable when it has below 1-1,5MB free heap)
- an Elfpack installed

2.Usage:
1. Put SEns9x.elf into Zbin folder.
2. Put SEns9x.png into Zbin/Config/Extension and add the line from ext.ini.txt to your phone's ext.ini. Change [EXTxx] to next available number. Update extensions with FileReg.elf or w/e elf that does that too.
3. Put ROM.smc (ie. Chrono Trigger.smc) in other/snes/ folder.
4. Run the emulator by clicking open on the .smc file or by running elf and choosing game from the list (game must be in other/snes/ folder for the second option)

3. Menu Usage:
We enter the menu by pressing right softkey. Entering menu also pauses the game. Most of the options are understandable, I'll just briefly explain some:
BG Layers - allows us to turn off background layer, useful in games that need transparency support (which SEns9x doesn't support for now)
Emulation Settings (Advanced) - we can modify there CPU settings to gain perfomance in some games, we can aswell edit Memory Settings to reduce memory usage: In most of games you can safely set SRAM to 8kb, although if the game needs SRAM bigger than 8kb, it can cause phone's reboot, you'd also lose your previously saved games. TILE memory can be set in range between 32-128, however setting it below 64 can cause graphics problems aswell as reboot the phone. It should work fine at 50 though, in some games at least.


4. Keys Settings
Key settings work same as in NesCube.
Function keys:
KEY TURBO FSKIP - turns on/off frameskip 15
QUICK LAYER - this key allows us to quickly turn on/off background layers that we have chosen in settings

5. Saving game:
While the quick save/load options in main menu don't work, you can save game using the original SNES's saving method - to the emulated game's memory (SRAM). You can save this way only in games that allow you to save this way. You can also import your saves from PC version of Snes9x, you just need to remember to keep same names, i.e when you have Game.smc you need the SRAM file to be named Game.srm.


6. FAQ
Will SEns9x emulate sound?
Unfortunately, elfpack seems to not have any function that would allows us to include sound emulation. At least in a way that would work properly.

Will SEns9x support custom chip games (i.e Doom - Super FX chip, Super Mario RPG - SA1 chip).
I'm afraid Super FX chip is too demanding to emulate on our SE phones. Adding SA1 coprocessor emulation is easy, but games that use it work too slow, so I didn't include it to SEns9x release to not make elf bigger. Maybe A2 phones will [no, they don't...]have enough power for SA1

Will Load/Save options in main menu work?
Hell, they do!

When will next version be released?
No idea. Might as well be never.

version history:
v0.19 - initial test release
...
v0.50, v0.53, v0.55, v0.56, v0.56r, v0.6, v0.61
v0.65 - current release

На W810 r4ea031 работает отлично. И Super Mario и Battletoads Double Dragon(1Mb). Причем запускается при работающих 10 эльфах(из Daemons). Респект, gurrsoft!

My settings are:
Screen rotation: 90 degree
Color depth: 16
Transp.: ON
Centering: ON
Fullscreen: ON
Keep proportions: OFF
Scaling method: nearest neighbour

If the latter is set to bilinear, my phone freezes!

-------------------

Мои настройки:
Поворот экрана: 90 градусов
Глубина цвета: 16
Трансп.: ON
Центрирование: ON
Весь экран: ON
Держите пропорции: OFF
Расширение Метод ближайшего соседа

В последнем случае имеет значение билинейной, мой телефон зависает!

scrscr: i don't know what was written there, i was just abbreviated the word "rotation", judged by your reply i assume google translate failed this time, right? :) I corrected it though, thank you for pointing it out.

flips: I don't understand what you want, sorry. Maybe you could try to write it in your own language, and have google translated and see if we got lucky.

--------------------

scrscr: я не знаю, что там было написано, я просто сокращенное слово "вращение", судя по вашей ответить я предположить Переводчик Google не удалось на этот раз, правда? :) Я исправил ее, хотя, спасибо за указание его.

переворачивается: Я не понимаю, что вы хотите, извините. Может быть, вы могли бы попытаться написать его в вашем родном языке, и перевод Google и посмотреть, если нам повезло больше.

Oh,thanks for Gods,it works on my w810i now:)
I tested four roms with different sizes:
Final Fantasy 4 (1mb)
Final Fantasy 5 (2,5mb)
Final Fantasy 6 (3mb)
Chrono Trigger (4mb)...
1mb rom works,but not well...slow:(this speed is enough for playing on FF,but...slow:)
2,5mb rom works like 1mb rom.
3mb rom freezes my phone (why?There is enough free heap for loading...)
4mb rom reboots my phone:(:(:(
And there is uncomfortable scaling on this emulator:(
Is it possible to make scaling like NesCube?
Sorry for my English:)

You have to set that yourself. When you start the elf, the right softkey opens the menu, there choose key settings. I don't know the default key assignments, and it may vary from phone to phone.

-----------------------

Вы должны установить в этом сами. При запуске эльф, право клавишу открывается меню, там выбрать ключевые параметры. Я не знаю, по умолчанию клавиш, и это может варьироваться от телефона.
